Shanna was in a bicycle wreck when she was around the 4th grade. She had multiple lacerations to her forehead and Mike and I quickly took her to the local physician. He proceeded to clean Shanna's injury and then began giving her shots to deaden the area so that he could suture her injury. She wanted her Daddy and he stood by her holding her hand. I was up closer to her head and talking to her. Dr. Evans was busily giving more injections. At one point, he injected medicine into one area of her forehead, and it squirted out a laceration on the other side of the injury....and hit the wall. I knew Mike was in trouble. I looked at him and he was GRAY. I quickly motioned to the doctor and he and the nurse flew into action. They grabbed him before he fell and took him to a sofa where hey laid him down and gave him orange juice. Shanna didn't care. She just wanted her Daddy.
But, Dr. Evans wouldn't let Mike back up. Dr. Evans finished sewing Shanna and as soon as it was over, she got off her table and went to see him on his sofa. I drove them both home.
